But it failed. Mike Johnson lost, and common sense won. Nine Republicans joined every Democrat in Congress to send a clear message to Mike Johnson and House GOP leadership: The status quo is not acceptable. It's not acceptable that people from middle-class families, and especially young women, have been deterred from running for Congress. It's not acceptable that Congress has been dominated by the interests of older, wealthy men. And it's not acceptable that Mike Johnson tried a desperate, last-second procedural gimmick to silence our voices. Over the last three months, I went toe-to-toe with the Speaker of the House and all the power he wields. And together, we showed Mike Johnson that nobody fights harder than a mom. But this fight isn't done. Next up is officially passing this resolution and making sure Congress actually reflects the people we serve. Mike Johnson will fight until the bitter end to prevent us from modernizing Congress, so I need your support more than ever before.
